Relaunch the App
- Close the Pluto TV app completely by pressing the Home button.
- Open the Pluto TV app again from the Firestick home screen.
- Pluto TV will now display in the chosen language.
It’s that simple! The app will retain the modified language settings going forward unless changed back to English in the steps above.
Troubleshooting Problems
If the Pluto TV app language won’t change on your Firestick, try these troubleshooting tips:
- Confirm your Firestick software is up-to-date. Outdated versions may prevent language toggle.
- Try restarting both the Pluto TV app and your Firestick device if language won’t save properly.
- Ensure you fully close the Pluto TV app after changing languages, before reopening.
- Check for any system language restrictions on your Firestick in the main Device Settings area.
- As a last resort, uninstall and reinstall the Pluto TV app from the Amazon Appstore.
Following the outlined steps closely should allow smooth language change in nearly all cases. But if issues persist try the tips above.
Alternative Options to Change Language
In addition to the in-app language settings, there are a couple other ways to modify the Pluto TV display language on Firestick:
- Switch your Firestick device language – This changes the system-wide language including Pluto TV, but also affects other apps which may be disruptive.
- Use a browser-based VPN service – Connecting to Pluto TV through a VPN can allow language modification, but requires a VPN subscription and configuration.
Unless you want a device-wide language change, the in-app setting is the simplest approach to shift the Pluto TV language on Firestick and Fire TV platforms.
Conclusion
Pluto TV connects you worldwide live channels and content in an intuitive, easy-to-browse interface. Taking a moment to change the display language within the Firestick app settings opens up many more viewing possibilities through alternate languages. With thousands of hours of programs now accessible, you can immerse yourself in a whole new selection of streaming entertainment from Pluto TV.
